Seahorses (Age 6-8)
Run, Jump, Throw Program 

Children who learn fundamental running, jumping and throwing movement skills through Track and Field acquire a strong foundation for success in all other sports and physical activities.  This is the value of the sport of Athletics – preparing Canadians for a lifetime of excellence and diversity in active living.  Ocean Athletics is pleased to offer its grassroots development Run-Jump-Throw program to the local community.  Our Run-Jump-Throw program has 3 objectives.  Safety, Fun and Skills.
